place devoid of men, an "Adamless Eden, -
where the white gown and the iauntv sailor
hat are unaccompanied by the wonderful
wardrobe of the vacation young man; the
dancing at the White Sulphur is as tireless
as ever and the queer little limerick, Jap
anese cottages at the Vineyard are running
over with miscellaneous population
Newport's season promises to be unusually

ned the rest OF the world ought not to COM
plain.

dentesS who dimes in her gloves would if she
were aqueen go to bed in her crown. Well-a-
day; there is nobody who has not soft spot
in his or her heart for Mrs. Cleveland, but it

Grace Howard, the well-known journal
lists Oldest daughter, writes home from the
Crow Creek Mission, Dakota, where she has
comfortably established herself that her
plans for the betterment of the industrial
condition of the Indian women are already

teacher, as the papers have reported, but
her scheme, which is an original one, is to
open on a small scale an establishment for
the cutting and manufacture of clothing and
other household articles which the Indians

as does not often happen, the agents have
any for sale. Her work is for her own sex.
Indian girls" she said to me Just before
her departure, 'are like white American
girls in one respect at least; they will not go

cost her dear. So will it YOU whether YOU

the Polish woman who, in her broken Eng

Tight shoes are making money for the
chiropodists in town. The Newport set
for once bless 'em-are SO so English as TO
wear sensible boots, Maybe the world will
follow them in time
The babies, who can't help themselves,
poor souls, are being put into low necked
